The endearing recollections of our early pursuits indnce us to return with renewed 'gratification to this admirable addition to the treasures of British Literature, which recals the enjoyments of our yout.h, and the pleasure has been much increased, as we find that at the seats of learning, the two Uni versities, several of our Correspondents "ha've joined with us in admiring a work which doe& so much honour to the poetical powers, as well as erudition and judgment, of the ingenious Trans lator. Proceeding in our extracts from Dr. SYmmoNs's commentary on parts of this great production of ,thello - ino Muse„, we shall now present our Readers with tw - o Notes, One on the celebrated description of night, not far from tide close of the fourth Book ; and on 6 containing some general criticism on the fifth L. ;01.•--. 'Twas night," &c. This description of a still night, and of the repose of Nature, contrasted with the sleepless and tumultuous agonies of the death-devoted Queen, has been very generally ad mired ; and the Reader need not be informed that it is closely copied from a very fine passage in the Argonautics of •APOL- Losius. The passage in question, with a translation of it by my friend Mr. WitiNutiam, sh:sll be transcribed." The Greek original, from Argo : iii. 743, is here cited by Dr. S., but we shall content our selves with giving to our Readers nothing more (Lan the translation, as'the curious and the learn ed of them may easily turn to the page of the Greek Poet : Now night o'er all her sable covering spread; And from the deck his glance the seaman sped, Where wheels the Bear, or bright Orion glows; The traveller now and watchman wooed repose. Even where her clay-cold babe the mother wept, • O'er her dimmed eyes the heavy slumber crept, ' 'Twits silence all ! no tread of echoing fret, - Or bathing dog, disturb'd the midnight. street, • But 110 sweet slumber seal'd MEDEA'S eyes,' &c. " If VI gnu imitated in this instance, it must be confessed that he has greatly improved. His choice of images is more curiously select and better arranged than that of the Greek Poet. I feel that. in the latter, the - circumstance of the wretched mother falling asleep over her dead children (for it is children in the original) is rather too strong an aggrava tion ; and that, after this most forcible illustration of the power of sleep, it is an anticlimax to mention the silence of the dogs in the streets, and the vague circumstance of there being no murmur of sounds, B.apoos Y,EY HXl2Eic. The remaining part, however, of this last verse istuost beautiful: c - Ty?;FiE I.4EACItyGILEYY,Y EXEY OHYY,Y, Silence occupied the black darkness.' TRAPP, in his note on this passage, has cited a very beautiful description of night from LEE'S Theo dosius. As it must please my R ea d ers , I w ill dl so transcribe it. Of the celebrated lines on the same subject, in. the Indian Emperor, ' by DRYDEN, my o pini on i s no t muc h more favourable than that which is here given of them by the Oxford Professor. They are in the worst style of their great Author. But, now LEE is to he exhibited : 'Tis night—dead night, and weary Nature lies So fast, as if she never were to rise. No breath of wind now whispers through the trees: Nu noise .at land, nor murmur in the seas, Lean wolves forget to howl at night's pale noon : Nur wakeful dogs bark at the silent moon, Nor bay the ghosts; which glide with horror by, To view the caverns where their bodies lie. The ravens perch, and no presages give; Nor to the windows of the dying cleave. 'he owls foitger to scream : nu midnight sound Calls drowsy echo from the hollow ground.' BOoK V. "After the distress and stor - a - ny passion of the preceding book, that which now opens presents us with tranquil de scription, and refreshes. us with the chearful spectacle of heroic games. These, indeed, nearly jat their conclusion, are interrupted by an incident of a❑ alarming nature. But the mischief repaired: a scene of much beauty and repose succeeds ; and we are gratified by seeing the hero landed, after all his toils, upon that coast which had so long fled be fore his pursuit; and brought within sight, as it were, of the plaCe of his ultimate destination. The games are generally drawn atter those in the-twenty-third book of the Bias: but they are varied by the hand of a master; and discover no thing of the tame servility of a copy. As a chariot race was ill adapted to the circumstances of the Trojans, crowded into small vessels in their passage over remote seas, and consequently not well supplied with chariots and with horses ',though of the latter indeed they were possessed;, a galley race is suhstitnted for the impracticable game; and we are, as I think, benefited by the suWitution. In the galley race there is touch novelty, various incidents, and excitement of interest: The defeat of the boastful challenger, in the fight of the cestus, gratifies our wish of seeing insolence chastised : the prodigy which distinguishes the flight of the arrow of Ac sr Es is new and surpris►ng; and the mock war fare of the equestrian boys (the• Lust's Trojce), which is alto gether the prodi , ction of Vract t„ is in a high degree enter taining. But though the games constitute the principal subject of this book, they do not occupy more than two thirds of it; and its remaining portion is appropriated to matter of it very different and a very important nature. The sacrifice at the tomb of ANCHISES; the burning of the Trojan ships; the apparition of ANCHIsES to his son; the conference of VENUS and NEPTUNE; the exulting career of the God of the Trident over the tranquillized waves ; and the safe phs sage, under h►s protection, of lENEAS to Comm, are circum stances of much interest and beauty. But, after all, I will confess that this book of the /Eneis- is not one of my 'mime favourites. Its immediate situation, between the fourth and the sixth, is perhaps injurious to its effect. Mien the mind has been agitated with the pathetic, or elevated by the sublime, it will not be fully satisfied with any thing which leaves it in repose, and unremoved from its natural level." t . PERTH, Nov. 13.—The Archduke MAXIMILIAN of Austria and suite arrived in this city on the evening‘of Friday last. The arrival of this illustrious st ranger having been duly announced to the Provost, his Lordship, atteuded by the Magistrates, waited upon his Imperial Highness the following morning, to present him . with the Freedoth of the city, and express the deep sense - entertained of the honour of ' receiving within ' this ancient burgh a member of the-august family of Hapzburgh. The Provost politely offered to attend his Imperial Highness, to inspect such objects in the city as might be deemed worthy of his notice ; but his Highness deciined this mark of attention, and satisfied himself with putting a few general questions with regard to thestate of ma nufactures, &c. in the town and neighbourhood. His Imperial Highness made but a short stay here, and proceeded in the course of the day to Dunkeld House. On Wednesday forenoon, his Imperial Highness the Archduke Maximilian and suite arrived at the Buck's Head, Glasgow. EDITOR,--1 ta ve studied, with some dile gence, the ancient Greek, and occasionally com pared the modern with it ; but tht re IS a preva. lent dialect of Greek, in this country, which I confess is beyond my comerehensiou. This may be called the Cockney dialect; of puffs or advertise ments. So fond ate we of seeming learned, that no new invention can go duty?' without a pre tended Gret k name to set it off; - whirl) name, however, is seldom composed according to any rules of ancient Grammar, but according ro the, rule of Empiricism, or quackery. This visitatiuu has been long coming upon us. I remember, in my youth, being startled witivEidophusicon. Be fore 1 had well recovered from that alarm, came Panorama, now adopted and confirmed as an Erie.- lish word. Then came • the yet more forniiitable Phantasmagoria, then Eidouranion, Holophusicon, and I know not what besides. Really, Sir, most of these svordswonld have puzzled DemosTicieNes, bust they are- pure attic to what have since arisen. .The greatest trial of patience 1 have met with from- this Cockney dialect, has been in passing through Welbeck-street, near the bottom of which, on a high wall, is inscribed, in large and fait Greek characters, AIATAAAMOPOT. What it was intended to signify, no inqiiicy has enablM me to discover ; for I cannot hind 11,1 the House so inscribed is now any thing but a Sale Aeent's Office. Nor will etymology or analogy assist us. It -61 i is meant as a preposition, then 7altantopou mast be intended for a - cOtaercepou But ytt,,,t will be the meaning ?—" Through the liken-If:1e " - What then is to be done through the miserable ? Shall we presume that the Cockney writer me ant FOR the miserable, and'that it was originally in tended for an infirmary,- 'or some place of relief ? If the whole was meant for one word, as it is certainly Written, it i s st ill l ess poss ibl e to guess about it ; so remote is it from any known primie tine or compound in the ancient lanenage. Having digested, as well as we could, this and . other enormities, very lately we have been as sailed by a new Corkneio Gratrism, or Grceco- cock ncisni. A new musical instrument his ht eh in. vented, the boast or which is the pe•eliar sv' et. ness of its tone. This quality is doubtless in tended to be intimated to the public hy the name bestowed upon it, which is CEttephone . Belt alas, in this unhappy compound, the two first syllables have no relation to sweetness. They are analogous rather to the two first syllables of CEdiptd, which imply the swelling of a living limb, from violence or disease. Phone, in deed, does ,mean sound or voice ; bet adipus himself, so famous, an enigteatist, mieht be puzzled to say what the former.part of the word had to do with the latter. s i-IF.5c, sweet, was pro bably the word aimed at. But that, written in English characters, would be Hedys and, if the compound could be tolerated, it would beHedye phone, or Hedeph o n e , if ta k en f rom the feminine.. A friend of mine, who is passionately fond of sweet sounds, but is also a classical man, has told me that he has constantly resisted the attraction of the advertisethent, and the moderate demanded for Are exhibition, because he caul(' not suppose that any thing worthyof notice . could he produced by a - persoll send* out and persist. ing in so hoFrid a barbarism.' "If it he a regular ptodure of the cockney dialect of Greek, it would be a kind thing if ,those who speak or write that 'patois, would tell the world by what rules or ana. logies they proceed ; tha! we may no.longer tor ment ourselves by vain search in a language which, though admired, seems here to be fory.fit'n.

Two of the like sort were seen at Rome in the days of Leo X. 1512, and were even then reckoned an invaluable %indica- tion of the truth and history of Christianity.
